Saw this question on lemmy and figured I'd ask it over here on the internet libre
one could "tax" them by stopping doing business with them if they bother a person so much, in a free market
one could persuade them to be charitable with the excess profits they have voluntarily
one could pray for God to provide for those who are poorer, and to turn the rich peoples' hearts towards helping those in need
one could work to create a culture the encourages these kinds of values
I'm curious if society was able to achieve getting rid of "absolute poverty" up to some kind of decent "living" or "family" wage, would some socialists care about certain rich people having that much more than them?
So I think perhaps these are two different issues. The problem is a creep of a sense of absolute poverty today, or "absolute" relative to certain societies.

We are all taxed way too much including the rich, the tax rate is bs, congressional salaries are way too high and NASA is a Ponzi scheme as well as many other government agencies, the Fed is robbing the American public
